That shadow is just too bright and saturated to provide depth.



On second thought, it may be that the orange is too dull

^ My crits.

* there was one color which was meaningless - removed.
* bright color needed to be brighter
* In general, color temperature should rise as brightness does. hence I changed this to have red silhouette, progressing to pink  shadows and then orange-yellow highlights.
Before I edited it, the temperature was jumping around (particularly, you had yellow-brown-pink-yellow (silhouette, AA, shadow, highlight). Keep it simple if possible.
* I added some white on the intuitive guess that it would suit.
If you insist on being pessimistic about your own abilities, consider also being pessimistic about the accuracy of that pessimistic judgement.
